Saturn 3

By -
After spending some time and searching for it, on and off, for few years, I finally found the name of this movie. I saw it when I was a kid, and I have been wanting to see it again. Its name is Saturn 3.

I don't remember much of the movie, other than it was about a robot, which was build on site, and it end up trying to kill the inhabitants of a space station. I was a kid and I thought it was pretty cool movie. Since I remembered about its existence, few years ago, I have been wanting to find out its name so I can see it again.

This is the trailer of the movie. In my opinion, it makes the movie look kind of goofy, but I like the olg cliches, costumes and animatronics. Sometimes they are better and more entertaining than today's CG.

Now that I know its name I will have to try to find it. I am sure that I will be able to find it on DVD, but if I can't I will have to go to few video rental places that still offer the good old VHS tapes. Maybe one of them might have it.

Format MAC Address [JavaScript]

By -
I am currently working on a project which will allow users to register their Wi-Fi enabled, non-web browser enabled, devices on the network. These are devices like printers, Apple TV, and Xbox*. One of the data points that have to be collected from the user is the device MAC address. The project customer wants that address to be properly formatted when they see it in the support ticket.

We have several options. We can format the address either on the back-end after the form has been submitted. Or we can format it on the front end via a separate text field for each character pair, but that is too many fields to handle. A better solution is to use a single field and format the user input at the time of input or upon submit. In those cases, the former is better because the data will already be formatted when the overall form input is being validation after the user clicks the “Submit” button.

We are going to format the user input as it is being provided, thus having proper data when vali…

SNOOZ: Sound. Sleep.

I was on the Snooz Kickstarter page today, revisiting the project’s details and timeline progress. The device, which is a white-noise generating machine, recently became available for pre-order. Snooz is meant to be an alternative to having a TV or a stationary fan running at bed time. In my case, I bought it for my wife so we can get the TV out of the bedroom.

Whilst on the comments page I read the following comment, posted recently by Ken Tran:

I'm not a fan of the new fabric design. ...
I must disagree. If you take a look at the original design, which is all plastic and no style, I must say it is fugly. It is all utilitarian - not something I rally want to look at or see when I walk into the room. The final design, seen on the right, is something that beacons to be explored, looked at, utilized.

I am a big fan of Bang & Olufsen. They use fabric from Kvadrat in their line of products. Incorporating soft materials like fabric or leather in something which is meant to be place…

Balloon Flowers of 2014

By -
We have Balloon Flowers (platycodon grandiflorus) in a half barrow pot. They are one of my favorite flowers that we have around the house. Simply because of how the flower forms. It starts as a small ball, which slowly grows into the shape of a hot air balloon, and once it opens it looks like it had exploded.

I planted the flowers from the pictures above about seven years, ago.
